I hope this is in the right place.

My clients network consists of 35 computers. A Windows 2003 server. The rest are a mix of win98 and winXP workstations. The workstations all use the IP of the domain controller as their DNS IP. We have one user that works from home on a win98 laptop.

Last week she brought her pc in to me and I logged in fine and transferred her data with no problem. This week I can’t login to the network at all. I was getting this error: “The following error occurred while loading protocol number 0. Error 59: A network error has occurred.” I removed everything from networking and reinstalled, now the Microsoft Networking login box shows up and I get this error after I try to login: “No domain server was available to validate your password. You may not be able to gain access to some network resources.”

I have tried to login with different cables, directly into the switch and everything looks good in device manager. I cannot ping anything on the network, it doesn’t even time out, just says destination is unreachable. Any one have any ideas?
